you suddenly discover you now compare any other vehicle in discussion to an xj

you begin valuing other vehicles by "how many xjs you could get for that" and how many decades they would diligently serve as vehicles

Lmao yes

My Golf has the same wheelbase as an XJ.

The Jetta Wagon has the same cargo space as an XJ.

Neither of them are as easy to work on as an XJ.

Wait I have two in my driveway and don't have the keys to either in my pocket. Does that mean I don't drive an XJ

You might drive an XJ if: You couldn't afford the Wrangler.
You might drive an XJ if: You can't afford the Wrangler.


You might drive an XJ if: You broke your daughters heart and traded your 1ton YJ for an XJ for her to daily drive.


You might drive an XJ if: You're short and don't need head room.
You might drive an XJ if: You agree that spending what they want for a JK is just plain stupid.

YMDAXJ if you find yourself doing the Cherokee wave....when your not driving an XJ. Then you realize your not in the right vehicle when you see the look on the persons face.

YMDAXJ if a family member recently bought a WJ, and you try to convince them they need to get new steering components... but you'll "take care of" their old tie rod and drag link for em.

YMDAXJ when you see two other XJs that look identical to yours and wish that you didn't have to drive a damn company car so you could be part of a Cherokee train.

if.......you turn on your heat when its 90* out because your temp guage says 212......just in case.
if.......when someone says "my xj is running 210*, i need a CSF 3 row, triple E-fans, a CSF hi-flow pump, a ZJ clutch and fully synthetic Coolant" and you just roll your eyes, while you keep one eye on your temp guage at 212* and the other eye on your volt guage hovering at 14 volts even.

You might drive an XJ if you don't understand how automotive cooling systems work
